The guy who used to play football

I do believe I have Brain Block.  I've sat down to blog several times over the last few days, and then stare at the screen, while listening to the TV tell me OJ Simpson's book and TV show about how IF he had killed his wife and her friend, this is how he would have done it.  There was such a public out roar, that it was trashed.  He, however, gets to keep the 3.5 million for writing the book. 

Muttin:  What's wrong? 

Me:  I can't stand a world where a murderer can get off like he did. 

Muttin:  He was proven innocent by a jury of his peers. 

Me:  (snort)  Yea, his peers alright.  They got starry-eyed by being close to his OJ'ness. 

Jeffrey:  Why is he so famous?

Me:  Well, he USED to be famous for being a great football star.  Now he's famous for murdering his ex-wife, Nicole, and her friend, Ron.  Even one of his lawyers believes he got away with murder. 

Jeffrey:  What's he done now? 

Me:  Don't you watch TV?  It was just on a minute ago, Muttin saw it, where were you? 

Jeffrey:  I was day-dreaming about going on a walk.  When are we walking today?  I need to plan.

Me:  What do you need to plan?  I do all the work of it - you guys just jump around like idiots in front of every step I take in getting ready.

Muttin:  Well, if you wouldn't take so long.  We never know until the last minute if we're really going or not.  Sometimes you forget in the middle of it.  Like when you pee.  Your coat is on, your gloves are on, your hat is on, then you pee.  Then all of a sudden you're flinging everything off and we don't go.

Me:  It gets hot peeing with a coat and a hat and gloves on!  And when I get hot, I start losing my mind and forget what I was doing. 

Muttin:  (rolls eyes)  Wouldn't sitting on the toilet be a clue? 

Me:  Grrrrr.  All I'm saying is that getting ready to leave is made more complicated with you two jumping all over the place.  You act like I've forgotten where the front door is. 

Muttin:  Well?

Jeffrey:  HUSH, Muttin.  Why am I always sorry I ask a question?  You two just take off with it, and get so side-tracked I can't even listen anymore. 

Me:  I'm sorry, Jeffrey.  You're so right.  Okay, back to OJ Simpson. 

Muttin:  Which is just such a lovely place to be, hmmm?
